Possible solution to your MMS not working

don't you mean "reset network settings" ?

EDIT: i just tried "reset all settings" and it worked. THANKS SASESSIONTC!

 

did this affect visual voicemail or anything when you reset all settings? any ill-effects from that? thanks

 

Another reason why MMS may not be working, and boy its a sad story.

If you have the original iphone $20 data plan it won't work. I called to check, and tried to be coy about my plan, but they decided to check and see I had the iphone 3g. Sad story short, I'm on the $30 plan now, upgraded my brothers unlimited texting to a family unlimited and well now I got MMS, but ATT gets $20 more a month.

For those who said, well now you're doing the right thing etc, screw you. Oh companies got to make money? Screw you. I'm actually shocked at how much you have to pay for cell service in the US. Let alone ATT network feels like its all a bunch of tin cans held by rope.

 

You weren't forced to use MMS. You could have stayed on the other plan. It was something you wanted, so you pay for it. Grow up.

 

Considering AT&T said that MMS is “part of your existing texting plan”, you shouldn’t have to upgrade a data plan.

 

Right, and it is, if he had the correct plan for the phone. He did not.

 

This solution worked perfectly!!! Thank you!! (Ventura County, CA, iPhone 3G)

 

I'm sure you're enjoying a power trip of telling people to grow up on a forum, when in fact I was saving money and you were not.

Not my responsibility to tell a company to charge me more.

 

Nah, stealing is ok as long as you don't get caught, right?

 

The service plan is the price you pay for a subsidized phone (the Gillette razor business model - get a cool handle for peanuts and pay through the nose for cartridges). Grow up! You are probably one of the ones who were b****ing about not being able to upgrade from 3G to 3GS before you were contractually eligible.

 

Lol. Pathetic.

 

Actually I never buy phones with contracts, and I'm actually upgrade eligible as ATT loves to remind me. I skipped 3Gs as the features didn't seem worth the upgrade. I keep my phones and top shape and sell them, making the next iphone not too expensive to buy. I travel quite a bit, so I like being able to downgrade my plans or even stop my plan for months at a time.

Stealing?
Look, if ATT wanted to charge me the correct fee, I'd gladly pay it. Still when this company has overcharged me many times on my bills by mistake, a little sweet revenge is not all that bad. I'm just a consumer, but honestly put yourself in my shoes and would you go to ATT and ask them to charge you more? If anyone says yes--- hell no one would.

I never said I was upset at the upcharge itself. I knew eventually they would do their job and change it. I am upset that I knew someone one would come in here and be naive about doing the right thing. I just took the risk of giving an option of why MMS doesn't work.

So please don't assume anything. The people who do, need to grow up.

 

its the people like you on this forum that annoy the hell out of me .... what is telling the person to grow up going to accomplish, also i would bet that if you were face to face with him and he told you this, you wouldn't have said that.

 

Back on topic...

I did the reset and still no luck. Still not recieving and still get that little exclaimation point next to the picture message. My daughter's iphone, on the same plan, is working according to her. Any more suggestions?

 

yes back to the topic at hand, i am having the same issue. wife is on the same plan, shes having no trouble at all, me on the other hand cannot send for the life of me.

did the "reset all settings" , did the 2 hour call to AT&T, restarted the phone over and over and nothing seems to work.

so whats the next step?
